I hope that someone can help me. I have the following two videos:

I merge the video and audio together with the following command:

The result seems to play smoothly in mpv. However I noticed that the playback time "jumps" to 19 seconds when it reaches 9 seconds. If I play 01.mp4 in vlc the playback freezes at 9 seconds and continues at 19 seconds after a while. Here is the ffprobe-output for 01.mp4:

Does anyone know what is causing this and how I can prevent this? I also tried to create 01.mp4 without using -c copy but the resulting video freezes at 9 seconds even in mpv (whereas it didn't freeze in mpv before). In any case leaving out -c copy seems to ignore the orientations of the videos. I need to concatenate videos with different orientation (some are horizontal and others are vertical). This is not a problem with -c copy but without it all videos get the vertical orientation and the horizontal ones are horizontally "squeezed" and vertically stretched, which destroys the video quality. I wouldn't mind to leave out -c copy if there was a way to tell concat to respect the individual orientation of each video file.

Thanks!

Try regenerating pts values when merging two videos like so:

ffmpeg -i 'concat:0.ts|1.ts' -c copy -fflags +genpts output.mp4
